its a straight through to just a standard gti6 backbox. So 1 box! Its quiet for normal driving but as soon as you take it past 3.5k it roars

Right time for a bit of an update.... ive done both FCS and pugfest in the last few weeks. Of the two I can really really recommend pugfest. The camping is great fun and the quality of the cars is amazing. And the chance to do the hillclimb is amazing!
FCS 2012:

Thats me on the dyno at 9.50.
Pugfest 2012:

And thats me at 6.13

Quite a few people have said it sounds like a tractor or a honda 1.4 with a japcan. I quite like the sound as its dead quiet for normal driving and as soon as you take it over 3.5k then it sounds the nuts!
From pugfest onwards ive been running a stripped out rear... which makes for some epically noisy driving. Think ill be buying a roll of cloud 9 to redo all the sound insulation as most of it fell apart as i took it out!

And onto dynos...
This was the dyno run i did october time Last year in Leeds and produced 108bhp so thats a loss of 4 over the 112 standard!

and at FCS on the dyno with no fans it managed to make 123. So thats up 15 with the gti manifold and straight through exhaust. With fans on the dyno and fixing the exhaust blowing in multiple places i reckon it would make a few more!

so toms306 should be over in the next half an hour to help fix it. Its all fixable but there is a crack in the middle of the bumper which isnt going to be easy to fix so it looks like ill be rocking the cable tied look for a while! D:
